Atheist here. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Atheism is merely about trusting what’s been proven, or has some evidence backing the claim that can be verified without doubt. Being agnostic is being indecisive about everything, even things that are completely made up.

I think the benefit of knowing the names publicly might be the public’s ability to then no longer elect these people, which cuts off the foreign interference at the root, as far as can be done within the country. It might also act as a deterrent for future MPs knowing their names could be released if they too partake in this behavior. It would accomplish stamping out the problem and publicly shaming these people for the rest of their careers.

Not saying it’s realistically feasible or prudent overall to actually release them though.

All good points. There’s definitely no perfect or even close to perfect solution.

Yeah that’s probably the strongest point in favour of letting people pick what they want. But I guess a potential downside of that could be if people start stocking up mostly on only a few select items that everyone else also wants., leaving nothing behind for them. But I guess that’s mitigated by seeing that happen a few times then specifically trying to get even more of those select items going forward.

Yeah that’s a good point. If you can’t see what people are leaving behind, you can’t know what to stop taking more of. I guess you need to generate some short-term waste in order to properly tune things as needed, to hopefully reach a point where you’re reducing waste as much as possible in the longer term.

I wonder if letting people pick their own items really reduces waste more than the hamper system? What happens to items left on the shelf that no one takes? That’s probably the same stuff that would be ignored from a hamper? I’m admittedly pretty ignorant of food banks generally, but I would think that the hamper system would be trying to encourage people to eat whatever they get, to both reduce waste by making sure all items get out there from the bank, and to ensure there’s enough of everything coming in to go around evenly? I can see this maybe resulting in the better items going first, and a bunch of less desirable items always being left behind to rot. Does that tend to happen in this type of system or not?

Can confirm, I’m living there right now. People here tend to take proper personal responsibility for their own garbage and mess.

You shouldn’t be charged for unauthorized requests to your buckets. Currently if you know any person’s bucket name, which is easily discoverable if you know what you’re doing, that means you can maliciously rack up their bill just to hurt them financially by spamming it with anonymous requests.

The good thing about getting one from the start is that you can set it up to your liking from the get-go and won’t have to do it later. You’ll also get used to using it daily and see how managing two devices works for you.

Yeah this is what I use to create and manage a work profile on my device to keep my personal and work data/apps separate.

You could sandbox it into a work profile that doesn’t have access to your main profile. Storage is completely segregated, and the work profile can be easily disabled when you’re not using it.

The best solution is obviously to choose another platform and convince your girlfriend to use that, explaining how this little extra effort on her part to use another app goes a long way with you in terms of appreciation and understanding of a partner’s boundaries and comfort zone.

It’s possible to manually find communities on a given instance instead of using an indexer. I’m guessing that’s how most people found it.

I know it’s been around for a long time, but I just heard about Real Debrid. My current setup is Wasabi + Rclone + Jellyfin, plus all the *arr services. What’s the benefit of Real Debrid over this setup, aside from cached torrents?

What a sorry state Canada is in when people are hired out of desperation without proper vetting to ensure they are suited to their jobs, even if there is a nurse shortage.

EDIT: Ah thought I was in a Canada community, my mistake. But I guess there are worldwide problems in healthcare these days.

How do people like this even make it far enough to get this type of job?

Whoever thought it was good at coding? That’s not what it’s designed for. It might get lucky and spit out somewhat functional code sometimes based on the prompt, but it never constructed any of that itself. Not truly. It’s conceptually Googling what it thinks it needs, copying and pasting together an answer that seems like it might be right, and going “Here, I made this”. It might be functional, it might be pure garbage. It’s a gamble.

You’re better off just writing your own code from the beginning. It’s likely going to be more efficient anyways, and you’ll properly understand what it does.

Conduit is a great Matrix home server. So quick and easy to get up and running with very little fiddling around. It’s a no-brainer to deploy.

I use Clipious, an Android client for Invidious, on my phone. I selfhost my own Indivious instance so this is perfect in that my phone never connects to YouTube directly, and I can save all my subscriptions in one place without a YouTube account.

On my Android TV I use Smart Tube Next. If I really need to cast, I also have YouTube ReVanced on my phone for just that, but I barely use it.

As soon as Clipious gets a proper Android TV interface, I’ll be set, as both devices can just connect to Invidious and let it do all the work.

Installed Sync as soon as I could, but went back to Jerboa for now due to lack of a one-time purchase option. Not a fan of subscriptions, I need less of those in my life.

How does this work? At what URL will this be hosted at?
